A curiosity took the best of me and I wanted to do a quick poll:
What's the monitor you're using and what you like/dislike about it? (I'm talking, of course, for photos/video processing)

DavidArbogast Cream of the Crop More info | Apr 19, 2013 13:42 | #3 Mine is a Dell 30" U3011 ultrasharp wide-gamut monitor. It's OK, but just "OK". I would prefer a high-performance monitor like a pair of 27" Eizos or NEC's 27" flagship monitor. The panel on my Dell is flimsy and unevenly lit. You usually get what you pay for and Dell makes a very good bang-for-the-buck monitor, but bang-for-the-buck also means there are some compromises. I would prefer a no-compromises monitor.

Apr 19, 2013 14:33 | #9 I have a pair of Dell U2713HM 2560x1440 monitors. Yes, they're 16:9 instead of 16:10 but they're the same horizontal resolution as Dell's 30" monitor which is a lot bigger, more expensive, and more power hungry. I calibrated them with a Spyder4 and they tested out to over 100% SRGB which is enough for me.

Apr 19, 2013 14:43 | #10 Samsung syncmaster 2232BWplus, I'm happy with it. I will change to a mac mini with two Dell screens soon, this one hangs on my power book, but I have no complaints, my prints pretty much resemble what I see on the screen. 40D, 5D3, a bunch of lenses and other things

Simply the best monitor I've used, by a wide margin. Three years later and the factory calibration settings are still spot on. You can switch between my custom calibration profile and the default factory profile and not tell a difference.Awesome! Thanks for the review and confirming my own suspicsions regarding how good they are. Now I want one or two even more! David | Flickr

Apr 19, 2013 16:23 | #14 The HP LP2475w is my main monitor and I've been quite happy with it. I prefer 16:10 and at 24" it's a good size but not too huge. I would probably get another 24" to go along with it & replace the Dell 2007wfp I am still using as my secondary monitor if I had room. I can probably make it work but I just don't know how I want to rearrange my desk yet. http://www.colorblindedphoto.com
